Experienced lecturer offering Speech and Drama lessons. Improve your confidence and skill at public speaking.
Methodology
I like to gear all lessons towards individual students. Everyone learns differently, and I don't think that one format can fit all learners. I will find out from you what it is that you would like to focus on, and design our lessons specifically around your interests and needs.
Background
I have worked in education for 20 years. I started out teaching speech and drama, after completing a Bachelor of Arts, English, and a teaching diploma. I taught drama and speech and drama for years before completing a Masters of Professional Communication. After this I also worked as a university lecturer, in film, and cultural studies. In between I spent several years in China, teaching ESL and speech and drama. I have also worked professionally as an actor and director in both theatre and film.
